I do think it would be wise to grab up a lesser-known. There's gotta be some rough around the edges character actors that don't get the leading man, pretty boy roles of today. I love it when unknowns get big roles. It's sort of a middle finger to the craft to keep handing these roles to the same handful of actors. Look at how many shitty comedies Jason Bateman keeps doing, because he's "That guy".

The way Hollywood has been doing things, they would give it to a Ryan Goseling or Bradley Cooper, because they are already big names and they make the girls giggle. Or they'll give it to Joseph Gordon Levitt or James Franco.

Hollywood is lacking new rugged actors. Sure, they'll have the muscles and the stubble, but none of them have that hard working look that the older actors had. Every leading guy looks like a damn Abercrombie and Fitch model.
